I use Steam for playing games. I'm also a game developer/videogame 3D artist. There's been controversy over the years with how much of a cut Steam takes from your titles and how hard it is to publicize your games on the platform against AAA studio games. I haven't published games on it...
Today was Oat milk Bastille part 2. It got a lot goopier for some reason. Used a % of chamomile infused olive oil. It might not be enough but we'll see if it does anything to the color.

I thought of doing that, but since the thread mentions warm water, I assumed (should've done the research) that the salt and bicarb would dissolve best in warm water. My oat milk was already chilled, and heating it would've cause it to thicken. Will the salt and bicarb dissolve alright in cold...

I didn't know climate could influence soapmaking so much. I live in a tropical country, so no real seasons beyond rainy and dry, and we're always between 70-90% humidity. Perhaps I'd notice all these details if I experienced soaping in a dryer climate. The incessant sweating is too real though!
